  • Ensure that equality and diversity related policies are assessed for their impact on different groups of learners by reviewing their content and context in relation to Yorkshire Coast College learners while adhering to the tight timescale set for completion of this work.
  • Support teachers further to increase the focus on developing equality and diversity themes in both lesson plans and schemes of work through further training, the use of exemplars, sharing of good practice and by strengthening the evaluation of this work through lesson observations.
  • Ensure that formal, regular monitoring of the equality and diversity action plan takes place as part of the work of the equality and diversity committee. Ensure that the formal reporting of equality and diversity measures to the advisory board and the board of governors takes place annually and meets the set timescales.
  • Reduce the number of learners who are classified as ‘unknown’ in the learning difficulty and/or disability category to ensure that appropriate support is put in place for those who need it.
